"Coming off of the arcade version of Frogger, which is a characterization masterpiece and paragon of gameplay, this version of Frogger is impossibly catastrophic. Frogger makes a leap (lol) from being our likable blank slate protagonist who we just want to see get to the other side of the road safely into a deeply unlikable and disappointing excuze for a frog. What’s with the bone sound effect?
Graphically the game is ugly. Plain and simple. Voice acting is mid but what else do you expect from Frogger.
The game’s antifeminist rhetoric is deeply entrenched in the naming of Lily, which eagle-eyed Frogger fans will recognize from the HIT TITLE, Swampy’s Revenge. Naming all girls Lily and therefore reducing them to one singular entity, especially when that name is congruous with a frog’s home, the lilypad, is misogynist.
If this hasn’t convinced you, they stole Silent Hill 2’s Promise. Lily’s not your Mary.
But Slick Willy can get it tho"
The hubris in the above review displays an unhinged troglodyte who has, clearly, burst. Frogger is a departure from its predecessors, it's true, but it is also a breath of fresh air and work of art in it's own unique, specific way. In creating The Great Quest, the devs seek to absolve themselves from what once made them legendary, and in doing so create a truer, more real game.
The fact that this person missed the obvious metaphorical and narrative explanations for what they've crudely described as "the bone sound effect" should be proof enough that this is not a review or a reviewer worth respecting. That the obvious subversions of the concept of "fridging" with the character of Lily have flown over this simpleton's head is no surprise, either.
Slick Willy is also ugly as hell. Stan The Magical General of Light and Industry.
